17.0 Linear feet
The Duncan Perry Collection consists of materials that document political and economic developments in eastern Europe from 1990-1994. The materials that have been processed, and that are represented in this finding aid, specifically cover the countries of southeastern Europe: Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, the states of the former Yugoslavia, and Turkey. The majority of this material originates from the Research Institute at RFE/RL. These materials include wire reports, re-reprinted news articles, program briefs, research reports, draft reports, and media/opinion surveys. The remaining materials originate from other European and American news agencies and research institutes. These non-RFE/RL materials also include wire reports and research reports on political and economic developments in eastern Europe.
The Duncan Perry Collection is not limited to news and research publications. The collection also consists of materials produced by various eastern European religious groups, political parties, and government agencies. While the bulk of the collection covers the period from 1990-1994, the collection also contains materials that Duncan Perry compiled while working at the Open Media Research Institute from 1994-1997, as well as materials from when he was an independent scholar (1997-2003).
